Doc suggestion: indicate that to simulate an infinite sleep, the usual Haskell idiom will not do

sleepForever = forever (threadDelay maxBound)

It could be written like this instead, since dejafu (correctly) does not perform (inaccurate, unreliable) deadlock detection like the GHC runtime:

sleepForever = newEmptyMVar >>= takeMVar
